Intelligent Design

Campaign materials tend to be a dime a dozen and be of the typical “Vote Clinton” button or ‘picture of the candidate with their name and the election year’ variety. Way back in the 60’s Barry Goldwater had a clever campaign with Au H2O. Every now and then you’ll find a clever button or campaign premise, but not often. There’s little that you would really want to display beyond the election date.

That is what makes some of Barack Obama’s materials so refreshing. The 008 Movement is backing Obama and has produced some well-designed materials. I think NotCot asked the right question: “Is Barack Obama trying to appeal to the designer set? Or does he really appreciate the importance of design?”
